Big bad Ben,

Bursting big balls.

Burning big cars,

I Asked The Little Girl Who Cannot Hear

I asked the little girl who cannot hear,
"What is sound like?"
She thought a while and smiled,
"I think the wind must howl like an injured wolf
And paper tearing is the sharp screech of a tree.
Church bells could be loud and metallic,
Snow falling sounds neat and gentle."

Recount Writing by Scott

Scott, Nathan and Ross watched a short Mr. Bean video. After they wrote a Recount about it. Scott's Recount was picked because it was extra good and his writing was so neat. 

     On Sunday at 2:50 Mr. Bean walked inot his house with a television in his hands. It was a new pne that he was setting up.
     First he turned o
n the lights and took the instructions out of the box. After a while he connected the plug and the telly came on but he had no signal. Next thing, he got a signal but he had to sit on a chair away from the telly. Then he took some of his clothes off and dressed the chair but that didn't work.
     Finally he jumped into the television box and it came on but suddenly his electricity went. It was very funny!!

Visit to O'Connell's School by Dylan

Yesterday, I went up with the rest of 5th class to visit O'Connell's school. They were having an open day for boys who might like to go there next year. It looks nothing like it was in the old days. There's no big steel bars on the windows. The school looks a lot brighter today. They have new walk ways with shelter on top. I found this picture on the internet:

I think this was 5th class back in the old days up in O'Connell's school. :-)

Larriers Gaelic Football Team Win In Style

Vive La France by Patrick

5^th Class from St. Laurence O’Toole’s Boys and Girls went to Eu in France. We went on March 18^th. We went to Eu because St. Laurence O’Toole is buried there and our school is named after him.

First we went to the school to meet up. Then we chatted a bit. After that we went on the bus. Soon we got to the airport and went to Burger King. Me, Lee, Alan and Damien were in a group with Miss Sunderland. After a while we went on the plane and it took about an hour and a half, I think. After that we had to wait for a missing guitar and William’s bag. Then we went on the bus. It took about 3 hours. Soon we got to the hostel and we had dinner. We went for a walk in the park and Fr. Deco pretended to be a ghost. When we got back I was very mucky. Then we went to sleep.

On Tuesday morning we got dressed to go to the French school. We sang two songs which are “I’m yours” and “Molly Malone”. After a while we went to a field to play different sports. There was bowling, basketball, Frisbee, Gaelic and Ping-Pong. There was a game where you have to throw a ball in some cans and a rope where you have to make a ball go in a circle. After all that we went back to the hostel, had dinner and went to sleep.

On Wednesday we got dressed in our uniforms because we had mass at the St. Laurence O’Toole’s Church. After that we went to the war graves and the fish market. Next we went back to the hostel. Soon we got to see a movie. The movie was called Water Horse. The movie was great.

On Thursday we had to pack our bags and put them on the bus. The bus ride was about three hours. When we got to the Eiffel Tower we all bought souvenirs and then we went to Aqua Boulvard. There were a lot of slides and more. After that we got on the plane and went home to Dublin.

I had a fantastic time. My favourite part of the trip was Aqua Boulevard.
